Chapter 836 The Lost Fleet (7)
835. The Lost Fleet (7)
Is-Kos also noticed the abnormal movements of the Separatist fleet, but he thought it was The other party's reaction is reasonable.
Because according to the investigation, the opponent only has 6 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers that have just been received and whose status is still unknown. After all, these warships have been floating in the universe for 25 years without anyone maintaining or managing them. How can there be any more? How much combat effectiveness cannot be guaranteed at all.
In addition, there are some escort carriers that cannot be integrated into the regular fleet. The Gray Horse-class is 210 meters long and is basically a running hangar. The Home-class is still a Predator-class heavy supply ship. The modified one is 800 meters long and has enough space, but there are too few take-off and landing platforms, and it cannot be used as a regular army to fight.
As for the five cobalt alloy-class heavy frigates, without forming a numerical advantage, this is a escort force that is better than nothing.
So the only threat is the almost crippled Titan battleship Plague!
But he has 8 Aquitens-class light cruisers and 5 Jaeger-class battlecruisers! With the Plague's main gun destroyed, they would never lose to them even if they were bombarded from a distance.
So now Is-Kos is more concerned about how to bring the Blade Fleet back intact. Now 6 ships have been snatched away by the separatists, which makes him extremely distressed.
That’s why he ordered an all-out attack on the transport ship, just to protect more Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers.
It's not like Iss-Kos didn't think that Severance Tann might have taken control of some battleships in advance and then mixed in to trick him, but the chance of this happening was very small.
Because the Republic warships are all encrypted, you must provide a key to control the warship. The Separatists do not have the key and can only crack it by force. This takes a long time and has to be done one by one. Now The Separatist spacecraft in this star field obviously cannot accommodate so many people and equipment to crack dozens or even more warships at the same time.
The most critical factor is that he has repeatedly confirmed that the engines of those battleships are shut down! This is where Isi-Kos’s greatest confidence lies!
You must know that for a large 600-meter-long battleship like the Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser, the engine must be started from a completely cooled state and generate enough energy to meet the huge energy demand of the battleship, and then one by one Starting each system, this process takes at least 1 hour.
In other words, even if all 200 warships are really occupied by the separatists, they will not be able to open fire until an hour later!
As long as you see the engines of these battleships starting to start, it will be too late to slowly turn away.
Besides, the space battlefield is so huge. Even though the Blade fleet is in a dense formation, the formation of these 200 warships also stretches for hundreds of thousands of kilometers. How can it be like a land battle and still block me from hitting anyone? Can't?
With this in mind, Isi-Kos decisively ignored Shen Qiaoen's warning and continued to go his own way, rushing towards the fleeing battery-class transport ships.
Shen Jon knew that something was not good, but he could not call Iss Kos, so he could only slow down his warship and fall behind, preparing to see what Severance Tann planned. How to cope.
Actually, the suggestion he just made is correct. Even though the Titan battleship Plague is so powerful, it can easily deal with several Jaeger-class battlecruisers even if it is severely damaged. But in fact, it is precisely because of the power of the Plague that it is the only one of the Separatist fleets. threaten!
As long as the Republic's fleet keeps chasing the Plague, the Plague can only fight alone. No matter what other arrangements are made, no matter what is in those escort carriers, and no matter whether the Blade Fleet has been taken over by the Separatists or not, There is no way to reverse this situation.
However... a truly outstanding strategy not only calculates the situation on the battlefield, but also... human nature!
In order to strengthen the credibility of this deception operation, Severance Tann, who had actually already controlled 6 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers, specifically asked one of the Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers to turn off the engine again. , the system was on standby, and after the Republic fleet arrived, it was restarted under their noses and entered the array.
At this time, silence is better than sound. This small detail is equivalent to telling everyone in the Republic fleet, come and grab it! Otherwise it will be gone!
The 200 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers originally belonging to the Galactic Republic blinded Is-Kos's eyes and made him make the wrong decision. On the contrary, Jon Shen, who was filled with hatred, was able to ignore the temptation of the Blade Fleet and think straight to the essence of the problem.
Just as the Republic's fleet was carefully avoiding those 'properties of the Republic' while chasing the Separatist fleet, the time was finally ripe!
This time, no need to be reminded, the force immediately sent a heart-stopping sense of crisis!
Shen Qiaoen and Yisi Kos were shocked at the same time, their eyes full of horror. Isi-Kos immediately shouted: "Stop advancing! Turn and retreat!"
But it was finally a step too late.
Severance Tann, who was commanding the overall situation on the Titan battleship Plague, slammed the table and shouted loudly: "Now! The whole army attacks!!"
With her order, the Blade Fleet Among them, more than a hundred Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers opened the hangar door in unison!
Then a large group of black Z-95 Headhunter fighter jets flew out directly!
That’s right! Severance Tann does not have enough manpower or time to crack and activate those Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers, but don't forget that these battleships are all on standby because they have lost control!
For battleships in standby mode, the hangar platform can be opened directly without hacking!
So the pilots of the Fourth Civilization only need to open the hangar platform, get on the Z-95 Headhunter fighter inside, and then stand by. This is just a process of opening and closing the door. The daily electricity consumption of the battleship can be satisfied, and there is no need to start the battleship engine at all!
Even so, they did not have enough manpower to occupy all the fighters, and only controlled the hangars on 120 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers. Each Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser carries 12 aircraft, and there are 1,440 fighters in 120 ships.
If it were a normal space operation, in front of a fleet with regional air defense firepower fully deployed, these more than 1,400 backward Z-95 Headhunter fighter jets would have to pay a heavy price to break through the fleet's air defense circle.
Not to mention the five Jaeger-class ships of Is-Kos, even if they are not fully loaded, there are still 1,500 fighter jets to escort them.
But now, the Republic's fleet has rushed to the edge of the Blade Fleet. After these Z-95 Headhunter fighter jets attacked, they have directly entered the very close range of the Republic's warships!
They can even immediately lock on to the target and launch an attack!
The pilots of the fourth civilization did the same thing.
1,440 Z-95 Headhunter fighter jets, which were also spray-painted with the logo of the Justice Fleet of the Galactic Republic, just flew out of the hangar platform and launched a large number of proton torpedoes towards the warships of the Galactic Republic!
Thousands of proton torpedoes were fired directly at extremely close range, and even the close-range defense system of the Jaeger-class battlecruiser could not intercept them all.
At this moment, following Severance Tann’s second order, the 300 ghost fighters of the Fourth Civilization that had been waiting for a long time all turned on their cloaking devices and headed straight towards the Republic fleet. Fly over!
I was watching the live broadcast of The King of Fighters 97 tonight. The offline fighting was so realistic that it was so exciting. I’m full of it.
